SUMMARY:Exhibit: Menaut Waktu. Merekam Jejak. (Threading Time. Archiving Traces.)
DESCRIPTION:From 11 to 27 September 2026\, Framer Framed hosts the presentation Menaut Waktu. Merekam Jejak. (Threading Time. Archiving Traces.)\, displaying the outcome of artist Jay Afrisando’s work as part the Atelier KITLV-Framer Framed residency programme.\nThe presentation presents a growing collaborative archival and counter-archival practice that follows perceptions of disability from pre-colonial\, post-independence and present day Indonesia. It examines the complex factors that have shaped disability discourses through the arts\, archives\, body-minds and collaborative practices between artists\, researchers\, communities and disabled people. It intends to be a meeting site for the past and the present\, for conventional archives and undocumented experiences and for the inter-human. \nMenaut Waktu. Merekam Jejak. (Threading Time. Archiving Traces.) is the outcome of Afrisando’s archival research at KITLV (Royal Netherlands Institute of Southeast Asian and Caribbean Studies) and his field research in Indonesia as part of the Atelier KITLV-Framer Framed Artist in Residence 2025-26. Instead of merely presenting the archival findings\, Afrisando collaborates with Ba(WA)yang Production\, Teater Braille\, SAPDA (Center for Advocacy of Women\, Disabled and Children) and Sedikit Terlibat to curate\, respond to archival findings and create a counter-archive together. \nIn this presentation\, disability is seen from the perspectives of decolonisation\, anti-ableism\, and through inter-paradigm and -disciplinary methods. It invites the public to understand why and how stigma\, medicalisation\, segregation and practices based on pity still exist until now. Doing so also allows visitors to investigate discrimination and inequality that happens even to those who do not identify themselves as disabled\, and open perspectives into various constructions of knowledge and practice full of inequality and partiality. Therefore\, (re)reading disability means not only reading the world\, but imagining and realising a different future. \nPlease join us for the opening on Friday 11 September at 18:00\, during which Afrisando introduces his work. Sign up here. \nDSL interpretation is provided during Afrisando’s speech and exhibition tour on the opening day from 18:00-19:00.

SUMMARY:CFP: Community and the Uncanny: Neurodivergent Inclusion and Exile in the Middle Ages (IMC 2027)
DESCRIPTION:Despite the importance of community for human wellbeing\, the neurodivergent experience of what community has meant throughout history has often differed greatly from that offered by neuronormative societies. Building on the success of our 2026 series\, Neurodivergent and Neuroqueer Temporalities\, we once again invite scholars working in neurodiversity studies and neuroqueer theory within medieval studies to present papers on the IMC’s 2027 theme\, ‘Communities’.   \n  \nThis series invites proposals for papers that examine aspects of medieval and medievalist communities through a neurodivergent or neuroqueer lens. This includes\, but is not limited to:  \n-Exploration of the social interactions of neurodivergent individuals in medieval communities.  \n-Examination of the relationships between neurodivergent and neurotypical characters in medieval literature.  \n-Discussions of the experiences of neurodivergent scholars in medieval studies.  \n-Exploration of the formation of neurodivergent or neuroqueer communities across time with figures or concepts from the Middle Ages.  \n  \nPaper proposals should be under 200 words and accompanied by a bio of no more than 150 words. Proposals should be sent to D.M.Coultas@leeds.ac.uk for the attention of Dan Coultas and Ash Paley no later than Monday\, 14th September 2026.  \nSuccessful applicants are reminded that they remain responsible for their own conference registration and fees.
